RAILS                  
                                          
                                          
  
                                          
  
                                          
                                          
 TRAINS  ARE  SO  CONSTRUCTED  THAT  THEY 
 HAVE  TO FOLLOW A SET PATH. THIS PATH IS 
 CALLED A "RAILWAY",  WHICH IS  COMPRISED 
 OF  TWO METAL RAILS, HENCE ITS NICKNAME. 
                                          
 BECAUSE  THE  LOW FRICTION  BETWEEN  THE 
 WHEELS OF  THE TRAIN AND THE RAIL METAL, 
 THERE ARE LIMITS FOR HOW ACUTE  A  CURVE 
 CAN BE, AND EVEN  MORE  SO FOR HOW  MUCH 
 THE  GROUND  UNDER  THE  RAILS  CAN   BE 
 SLOPED. THUS A RAILWAY IS OFTEN NOT  LED 
 ON  TOP OF HILLS, RATHER THROUGH THEM IN 
 TUNNELS   (IF   THEY  ARE   LARGE),   OR 
            ARTIFICIAL CHASMS.            
                                          
 THERE  WILL BE TREES ON THE SIDE  OF THE 
 RAILS, BUT  NOT TOO CLOSE, OR THEY  WILL 
 BE  CUT  DOWN BY THE  RAILWAY  JANITORS. 
 THERE  WILL BE  PLAINS,  AND  BODIES  OF 
                  WATER.                  
                                          
 TRAINS  GO  BY DAY AND  BY  NIGHT. ALONG 
      THE WAY, THERE IS INFORMATION       
 SCATTERED, OFTEN  PUT ON  TOP OF  POLES, 
 TO  BE INTERPRETED BY THE TRAIN DRIVERS. 
 DIFFERENT  PARTS  OF  THE  RAILWAY  HAVE 
          DIFFERENT SPEED LIMITS.         
                                          
 SOMETIMES, TRAINS HAVE TO  STOP AND WAIT 
 FOR SOMETHING  TO HAPPEN, FAR AWAY. THIS 
 IS  SIGNALED  BY  RED  OR GREEN  LIGHTS. 
                                          
                                  
                                          
 MANY PEOPLE  FOLLOW THE  RAILS  BY FOOT. 
 OFTEN  THIS  PROVES  TO  BE  THE SHORTER 
 PATH BETWEEN  TWO  POINTS. HOWEVER  THIS 
 IS  FROWNED  UPON,  AND   VERY  IMPOLITE 
         TOWARD THE TRAIN DRIVERS!
